Now this is what happens. In the Program: Sequence 1, which is my whole video (the Timeline), all of the borders of it are trimmed(the left side, right side, up, and bottom all seem to be "cut").

My video should not be like this, since I do not want anything to be trimmed, I want people to see my whole video, so I am not sure what is happening. If anyone knows a setting to fix this, or if maybe I am doing something wrong, can you please help? Thanks

If the source material is from the web instead of captured from a camera, it is possible that the frame size is smaller than your project size. Always try to create a project using the same frame size as your source material.

I took some footage of me playing a video game, and I captured it using a screen-capture software (Fraps).

The imported material was .avi clips

I still can't get it to work guys, ill try and explain everything I did.

1) Open Adobe Premiere Pro CS3.

2)Click new project DV-NTSC Standard 48kHz

3)Import a .avi Movie I captured using Fraps screen recorder

4) Use the Set In point and Set Out point to get what material I want from my movie

5)Drag it onto the timeline

6) Look at my program: sequence 1, and my movie seems to be trimmed from all angles, meaning if you've ever played a first person shooter game, you cannot see the gun I am holding, but in the movie clip that I recorded earlier, you can a see the gun I am holding.

I had a similar (similar, but different) situation with footage, that I Exported from my security system's HDD via their propriatery software. It allowed Export to AVI (forget what CODEC it used, as this was 2 years ago). Brought it into PP to edit, enhance the date/time, and caption it for the police. Problem: all I got was the lower 1/3 of the image. The top 2/3 were cropped off - black. Tried another Export, with same results. Converted to DV-AVI and got the same. Converted to MOV, Imported to PP, and finally had all of the image. I've seen all sorts of problems with non-Captured footage in PP, but never this.

You might want to use G-Spot to see what CODEC FRAPS is using for your AVI file, unless the FRAPS Export window will give you a clue.
